is right twice a day. Attytood is not even right that often -- but remember this prediction from a week ago:

...with the unexpected hero being Joe Blanton, or JoBla as we call him here at Attytood.

Of course, I also predicted in the same sentence that the series would go 5 games, not anticipating the epic unnerving of C.C. Sabathia. But JoBla did come up huge today, and so did another unexpected hero, Pat Burrell, who entered the game 0-8 in the series, and your Philadelphia Phillies are going to the National League Championship Series for the first time in 15 years.

Everybody hits! Whooo-hoo!

More later.

Even when Bunch is right, he is still an idiot.

Sorry to say I would like to see the Dodgers make the series to send a big "FU" to the Yankees.

Personally, I hope the Dodgers make it to the Series, just to say a big "FU" to Steinbrenner and the Yankees.

I think I would like to track down the everybody hits guy, and get him to record my voicemail message. Dan's not here. Leave a message. Whooo hoo!

Will the only thing sadder than your blog, is the editor that gives you the opportunity. Why don't you put more effort into your blogs, instead of just some 300 word nothings. Peek at Polman, when you get a chance, and see how the professionals do it.

Hey Will, ignore these neo-con idiots. They're McCain messiah is going down in flames and they can't handle it. Guys like Obamahater, RFrench, and Shoeshineboy would find something bad to say about their own mothers.

ObH, there's a simple solution to your anger: go hang out in some other neighborhood.

LOL Hiredgun at least we know WHO our mothers are! "They're McCain messiah"?? What in the world does that mean? Whoever "hired" you needs to get their money refunded. McCain is fine. Rush has stated that Osambama needs to be up by 10 points on election day, and I agree. He still isn't there yet, so it's still a toss-up. I like McCain's chances, and being from Arizona, I'm sure you aren't around too many Osamabama supporters, Gun. I know at my job at the Deer Valley Airport, 5 people are for Osamabama out of 63.

Obama Hater, When I think a guy is full of it, consistently wrong, an idiot, you know whayt I do? Stop reading it. Who's the idiot, Will for writing it, or you for consistently reading it? Here's a hint, not everyone on here hates what he writes, there is an audience, thus a reason to continue..... so it's not Will that's the dope.

Gee, you're right, but Polman hasn't come out with anything this weekend, so I peeked at Bunch. I should have known there would be some 9th grade blog being offered, but like I was saying about being bored. Point taken though GEE.
